Will definitely come back

It was such an amazing stay at Hux hotel! Loved the upper floor room with an “attic” style of the room. Made me feel like I live in London. So much better than a sterile hotel style. The design in the hotel and the bar is super creative and well maintained. The staff was super helpful and accommodating. Probably one of the best places I’ve ever stayed!

Crowd stopper

Great service, friendly staff, we arrived early but was able leave our luggage and explore London until the room was ready. Great location close to underground or walking distance to most amenities. The animals in the front window is a crowd stopper.

Fantastic Hotel

Wonderful, quirky hotel in a great location with excellent staff who were friendly and attentative at all times. Great location too. The only thing I would flag is that it may not be appropriate for people with mobility issues as you need to climb two flights of stairs to get to the lift up to the rooms.

Altaf, Liam and the rest of the staff of the Hux Hotel were phenomenal during my stay. They genuinely went out of their way to anticipate and address any questions I had about the city and also provided excellent service. Absolutely a testament to the culture of the place. Looking forward to my next visit to the Hux Hotel!

Eclectic & Unique

The hotel is eclectically unique with a stuffed life size lion in the window. We had a petit double room which is exactly what it was. We were greeted by a very welcoming young man called Liam who was helpful and professional. The room was clean and vibrantly decorated. My husband and I stayed here as it is a good location for us to go to the theatre. It also is close to shops, restaurants and museums as well as Hyde Park for a stroll. We booked for 2 nights, but due to the size of the room I think an overnight is enough. There is little room for clothes and storage without affecting your movement around the room. We went into the hotel bar on one evening to have a cocktail, but we felt it was quite an intimidating experience. The bar was empty apart from a group of staff congregating around the bar all discussing and making new cocktails we believe. One of the staff served us who was obviously knowledgeable, but we felt it was a very imposing atmosphere and didn’t go to the bar again. This was a shame as the quirkiness and feel of the rest of the hotel we loved.
